About the Guest:
Mike Iamele seemed to have it all. By the age of 24, he was raking in the money at his own public relations firm. Turns out it was killing him in every sense of the word. When a stress-induced illness hit him head on, he began to question everything he believed about success.
It was at that point when Mike decided he had enough. He was ready to have success on his own terms – not everyone else’s.
Mike Iamele is an international writer, clinical herbalist, business coach, and author of the book Enough Already: Create Success on Your Own Terms (Conari Press 2015).
